Just went through your other post. Like John B mentions, there are 2400
scripts, I believe a good portion of them might
be useful but its very hard to run through each one in the list, install it
and see whether it really works -- this is the user
perspective (as nico mentions too). That is where a system of reviews for
plugins might make things better. This simplifies looking for plugins that
might be beneficial for the person while still keeping the authors motivated
enough to keep updating the scripts. It helps the community overall in its
attempt to make Vim more powerful and useful. Thomas's Wiki link has a
comment that says, a simple thread that allows users to leave comments on
the plugin might be the most effective way, IMO. It would be nice if things
got underway with that effort.

Incidentally, I did look at Marc's "RunInBackground task" plugin long time
ago. Had trouble on figuring how to use it. It seems
to me that these sort of plugins are important extensions to Vim's
capabilities. We could open up separate projects on
certain desired "features" and assimilate contributions.
